The Carrion

The Carrion, formerly called "The Tomato Sauce Monster" or "The Teratoma Terror," is a sentient mass of red flesh that appears at spawn from time to time. It sported a hostile disposition on its first appearances, but grew friendlier over time.

Such creatures are created using SLC and unicode blocks by an anonymous artist.

"IT SPREADS, MY SPAWN OF TISSUE AND BLOOD" "STAGE 3: CYSTS DEVELOP, BURSTING INTO NEW GORE TO SPREAD MY INFECTION. IT IS BEAUTIFUL, IS IT NOT?"

First recorded instance of The Carrion on November 11th, 2024. This prototype was covered with yellow warts and had eyes made from block characters. It did not contain any Symbols for Legacy Computing, nor did it make use of the ability to customize cell background colors, since that feature wouldn't be enabled at spawn until much later.

"BLOOD SPILLS FROM THEIR WOUNDS, IT FEEDS THE MASS; GROWING LARGER, MORE BEAUTIFUL."

"THE TENDONS, GIVING THEM THE GIFT OF THE INFECTION, MAKING THEM BEAUTIFUL AGAIN."

"THE MARROW PRODUCES MORE FLESH; IT IS BEAUTIFUL; BRAIN DEVELOPMENT UNDERGOING."
